Every Saturday, Maxifoot invites you to take a tour of the ten statements of the week that should not be missed. Serious and at least serious to know the best of the little phrases of the players of the round ball. Discover the ranking of all the statements that made the headlines in the press this week.
1. Gary Neville – It’s a shame. The owners of these clubs are only after the money, they are impostors and they have nothing to do with football in this country, its fans and its 100 years of history. It really is a joke. Enough is enough. It’s a criminal act against football fans (Sky Sport, 04.18.2021)
The English consultant was the first to criticize the Super League project after the announcement of its creation. Effectively.
2. Javier Tebas – They will finally come out of the ‘five in the morning bar’, of the ‘underground’, the powerpoint Super League gurus, drunk with selfishness and lack of solidarity (Twitter, 04/18/2021)
When the La Liga boss pulls his teeth out, he bites very hard.
3.Alexander Ceferin – Andrea Agnelli, I have to say that is the biggest disappointment. I don’t want to make a personal comment, but I’ve never seen a person lie so persistently. It’s amazing, I spoke to him on Saturday afternoon. He told me that these were just rumors and that he would call me back later. And the next day, we see the press release (Press, 04.19.2021)
And to think that the UEFA boss is the godfather of one of the children of the president of Juventus …
4. Christophe Dugarry – It’s rubbish, the guys at the head of the club, we knew it, we said it for months. Longupe is going to release, that’s what we were all waiting for. People will take over the club, I hope that the club will find its identity, its soul. The people who were in charge did everything to destroy the club. They made decisions which were almost all wrong. Everyone has to get out of the way and not come back to football (RMC, 04.22.2021)
The strong words of the former Bordeaux player after the announcement of the departure from King Street.
5. Pep Guardiola – Sport is not a sport when success is guaranteed. It’s not a sport when it doesn’t matter if you lose. It’s not fair if the teams fight at the top and can’t qualify (Press conference, 04.20.2021)
The Manchester City boss had the courage to stand up against the Super League project. No coach has gone that far.
6. Fernando Roig, propos of Florentino Prez – He is selfish, selfish and … selfish. He only thinks of Real Madrid. And besides, Villarreal doesn’t need Florentino to come and save him (Marca, 21.04.2021)
The president of Real Madrid has lost an ally among the presidents of La Liga.
7. Patrice Evra – Why don’t they have the same energy and the same passion to fight racism in football as they do against the Super League? You know why ? Because there is no money at stake. So stop your hypocrisy (Twitter, 04.22.2021)
The former French left wing took advantage of the chaos to pass a hot potato on to the leaders of world bodies.
8. Jrgen Klopp, About Gary Neville – He talks about ‘You’ll Never Walk Alone’. To be honest, this should already be banned. Because we have all the rights to sing this hymn, it is our hymn and not his and he does not understand it anyway (Sky Sports, on 20.04.2021)
The Liverpool manager took little notice of the criticisms of the former Manchester United player.
9. Carlo Ancelotti – At first I thought it was a joke. A few weeks ago, I gave an interview on this topic and I said that was not going to happen. It’s impossible. The culture of sport in Europe is not the same as in the United States. What can I say ? They were wrong. The twelve clubs were wrong (Press conference, 04.22.2021)
As Everton’s coach, the Italian was logically against this project.
10. Giorgio Chiellini – If Cristiano Ronaldo is a problem I wish I had many more like this (Sky Italia, 04.17.2021)
While his future is debated at Juventus, the Portuguese can count on the support of his captain.
It is on this statement that the Top Statements of the week ends. See you next Saturday for a new issue!
